Our driveway ... even with the new gravel from last year was pure ice Saturday morning!
YakTraks were in order!
So for most of Saturday night and most of the Sunday we were encased in ice and fog with dense fog predicted through Monday forenoon.
I went to get Saturday's mail and was struck by how cool the forest looked.
The fog was thick and the road was iced.
It was a fine day to stay off the roads.
I did venture down into our creek bottom and enjoyed some bird watching through the dim light. I walked on the ice as it was easier than walking on the rocks.
Some think cold, damp, and foggy days are awful. I think of it as having Mother Nature is a soft light box.
It is dismal looking in a way. But sometimes one can find beautiful things.
I am very lucky to be surrounded by an interesting landscape.
The temperatures warmed up quite a bit during the day and some of the ice melted down almost enough for me to be able to drive up the hill if I needed to.
That said, even though it was a pain to so many people. I liked our fog and ice.
